Whole30 is a restrictive 30-day diet that eliminates all grains, dairy, legumes, added sugars, and processed foods and instead focuses on fish, meat, fruit, and vegetables. It's intense, but luckily a little less so from June to September when barbecue is all the rage. Since most barbecue food is fruit-, veggie-, and meat-focused, a lot of it is already Whole30-approved. Chicken skewers, burgers, fruit salad—yeah, you can eat all of that on Whole30.

There are a few barbecue favorites you'll have to avoid if you're trying out the diet. Anything with a bun is off limits, so consider wrapping your burger in a lettuce leaf. Corn is technically a grain (ugh, so inconvenient), so that's also out. And things like slow-cooked pulled pork are often made with a bunch of sugar, so be on the lookout for that when you're hunting for recipes. Aside from those caveats, pretty much anything is fair game.
